Theme Thursday - Blue

This week's theme at Theme Thursday is "blue". My 4x6 postcard is an experiment with some mixed media techniques I'm learning from Roben-Marie Smith's current online workshop Mixed Media Mayhem. (You can check out the class details HERE) I had so much fun playing with text and music scraps, acrylic paint, gesso and spray inks to create my background then added pen doodles and stamping with both ink and gesso. The final touches are a Paper Whimsy girl, Tim Holtz tissue tape and book text.

Penny this is lovely as is all your work and I should know.... your lovely matchboxes for the swap arrived. I LOVE your idea ! Thank you for these but mostly THANK YOU for the totally wonderful gift you sent which I can't stop looking at ! I put my 1963 Penny in its drawer. Love it love it.Will post about the matchbox swap soon and get the sets of as soon as they are all in. xx
